Hub researchers are investigating the processes that influence rainfall in northern Australia, so we can better understand how they are changing and what this means for the timing and amount of rainfall.

Early career climate change researchers, engineers, actuaries, modellers, engineers and policy advisors recently gathered in Sydney at the third of the Hub’s young professional forum events.
-
Aerosol and cloud data being collected in the Southern Ocean will help assess and improve climate modelling, improving our confidence in climate projections.
-
Hub researchers found that conditions favourable for bushfires to cause their own storms (which can lead to extremely dangerous bushfires) have increased in south-eastern Australia since 1979.
-
Climate change affects more than temperature – we’ve also seen the fingerprint of climate change on frosts and extreme rainfall.
-
Hub researchers found that a major mangrove dieback in the Gulf of Carpentaria in late 2015 was most likely a result of a combination of conditions that were unprecedented since at least 1971, and linked to the strong El Niño of 2015/16.

‘No room for complacency’ – that’s the big message from the latest Global Carbon Budget, which reports global greenhouse emissions from fossil fuels and industry are on track to grow by 2% in 2017, reaching a new record high of 37 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide.
-
Analysis of 67 years of fire weather data shows a clear link between climate change and bushfire conditions.
-
Two Hub researchers are among the 100 expert authors preparing the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate.
-
We brought together young risk management professionals and early career climate scientists to build professional networks and increase awareness and understanding at both ends of the decision-making spectrum.
-
Satellite data is increasingly supporting carbon cycle monitoring, but there are still some limitations on what the data can tell us.
-
Managing climate risk to 2030 means accounting for both climate change and natural climate variability.
-
As strange as it sounds, global warming could actually be increasing the odds of some types of cold extremes in some places.
-
A project to digitise old tide records will enable analysis of how extreme sea levels along Australia’s coastline have changed over time – and you can be involved!
-
Hub researchers are using a combination of observations and modelling to better understand the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events.
